Even attempting this should be highly illegal, and AI should be written with safeguards to prevent people from trying. Anyone who gets caught attempting this should go to prison for a long time.

Bioterrorism is already illegal, regardless of whether AI tools are involved

The point is you shouldn't have to actually create the deadly agent for it to be illegal.

What "this" were you referring to then?

Using AI find deadly biological agents, even if you don't actually create them.

I think it should require a credible threat. The fact of the matter is we live in a society where people could cause massive amounts of damage fairly effortlessly if they wanted to. I don't think someone should face punishment for looking shit up out of curiosity.
